lyrics
I'd love to go down to the pool with you,
But I get frightened at the deep end.
I do my utmost to impress.
You just say I look a mess.
I look over the side it looks a long way down.
I hesitate, but then I see you frown.
I hold my breath and think about you.
My knees go weak.
I move my arms and legs.
Do all the right things
But the water goes up my nose
And into my eyes and stings
And the bottom's still miles away
And my lungs are bursting.
What kind of crazy fool would go diving for the brick?
Diving for the brick.
When I get out, I know you'll be impressed.
But woe is me! You've gone to get dressed.
Why is life so cruel?
More to the point why am I such a fool?
I wish I was a big he-man,
with muscles all over the place.
Cos then you'd love me, I bet you would,
and I wouldn't have to go
Diving for the brick
Diving for the brick
Diving for the brick
Diving for the brick
I feel sick
My lungs are sore
My eyes are stinging
But my heart is singing.

Same here as for the 1978-1989 compilation. Terrible sound quality. Would have been so great to have everything they have released on a couple of discs. Dirk
Post-punk, avant-garde and free jazz samples form the basis of this instrumental hip-hop gem from Edinburgh's Edward Scissorhand. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 9, 2022

Most of these songs were available on the 1995 "Yes darling, but is it Art?" CD release. I'm assuming the masters are gone, which is fine if you do a good transfer from the original records. When I saw these were remastered, I was looking forward to some light de-clicking and removal of rumble from the original transfers. This isn't the case. Instead they added some weird super loud "tape hiss" for lack of a better term, and it makes it sound harsh. Very disappointed in the "remastering". numanoid1979
